Longtime West Coast rapper Suga Free, who was raised in Compton by way of Oakland before becoming based in Pomona, CA, this week released a best-of collection CD titled Why U Still Bullshittin’?-The Best of Suga Free on Suburban Noize/Laneway Records. Suga Free, whose claim to street fame is that he is a pimp (hence his tag "The Ponoma Pimp"), officially began his career in rapping working with producer DJ Quik on his 1997 debut album, Street Gospel with Quik even making mic cameos on the songs "Don't No Suckaz Live Here" and "If U Stay Ready" - the latter of which appears on this new retrospective collection.

In addition to working with DJ Quik (who was at Amoeba Hollywood earlier this year), Suga Free has also worked closely with other SoCal rap icons. These include Snoop Dogg and Xzibit for whom he contributed to his album Restless. All of this company aided the already talented, albeit nasty mouthed artist, gain solo notoriety. It was in 2004 when he released his sophomore release The New Testament(The Truth) which was followed by a string of other albums by Suga Free including his 2006 album Just Add Water, 2007’s Sunday School, 2008’s Smell My Finger, and 2009's HI Power Pimpin. Last year the artist was featured on tracks with Kurupt, E-40, MURS and 9th Wonder. The retrospective released this week overviews the best of these releases by the artist including his street classics “Why U Bullshittin’?” and “I’d Rather Give You My Bitch.” But the 14 track CD also includes two brand new tracks “Shit Yeah” and “Bitch (featuring Moosei)." Why U Still Bullshittin’?-The Best of Suga Free is now available at Amoeba Music and if you buy it online at Amoeba.com the $12.98 CD ships for free anywhere in the US.
